• Invoices

Stay on top of every payment

Whether it's room hire, fees, or membership contributions: ChurchDesk Finance keeps all your parish invoices in one place. You can see at a glance what's open, overdue, or paid — and send an automatic payment reminder whenever it's needed.

Symbolbild Rechnungen

Handled where it happens — no switching, no double entry

Invoices are raised right where the occasion arises — directly from a calendar event or within a workflow. A wedding confirmed, a funeral completed: the invoice is ready in one click, and the status updates itself. No jumping between systems, no entering the same information twice — everything is connected and taken care of in the right place.

• Cash Book

Record collections, donations, and cash payments simply and securely

Sunday collections, votive candles, cash payments for hall hire — cash is still a daily reality in many parishes. The ChurchDesk Cash Book replaces paper slips and spreadsheets with a clean digital record: all income and expenditure logged directly in the system, categorised, and supported by receipts.
